Brake light problems!!!
Hello,
I've got a 2007 GS450H with almost 81k miles on it. The other day I was driving and about 7 lights on my dash came on. ABS, CHECK VSC, tracking control, BRAKES, etc. I took it to my local dealer and they reset the computer because they couldn't find anything wrong. Believe it or not they did not even charge me and gave me a GX460.
However, two days ago all the same lights came back on. So once again I took it in and yesterday they called me and told me I need a new brake actuator and told me it's $2,105. They said I won't lose my brakes but I might lose my ABS and some other safety features.
Well I'm not going to spend $2,105 on my brakes. The car drives great right now. I've been reading some older posts and have heard it might be a "Brake light switch" problem.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
